摘要
We demonstrate several relativistic effects associated with expanding spherical sources of light. We show that if the surface lights up for sap a month, it may be seen for a few seconds only if it expands sufficiently fast. Also it is demonstrated how the observed properties of the light sourer are modified by aberration and the Doppler effect, The apparent luminosity as a function of time is calculated and shown graphically. Modifications due to the motion of the light sourer away from the observer are calculated. (C) 2000 American Association of Physics Teachers.
